Damn, now I am motivated to change my diff oil - but I changed it just 6k ago... Thanks for this video. 👍

Thanks for the kind comments.

Only supposed to put 0.66 lts in the front diff not fill till spill. Rears are 1.16 or 1.61 depending on non locking or locking rear diff.

I wish my LR3 was that clean. I guess UK doesn’t use the corrosive chemicals on the streets as the states do.

[@mojimotv2]

your front one is really good!!

[@quepexboy688]

I have a question, what kind of oil should I get for the rear diff?

[@notalegalalien]

What oil did you use?

[@blackvulcan100]

Is it the same procedure for the D4 are the D4 axles the same ?

[@yupieatcrayons5331]

Yes

[@Horsleyclassics]

thats the fill plug and not the level plug. LR states .61 litres exactly for the front diff to fill. if you fill till it starts to spill it will be overfilled.

[@deporbs]

Can it damage something if you overfill ?

Great video. But maybe use a microphone attached to you as all i could hear was the cameraman’s extremely heavy breathing. It was rather off putting.
